My Project
A classroom rug is a sacred place to collaborate with peers, work independently, construct knowledge, solve problems, and so much more!
With a large rug that can accommodate all of my students, my second graders will have the opportunity for many different opportunities including mindfulness, SEL, collaboration, independent work time, constructing ideas/problem solving, and so much more!
My goal is to be able to create a space where every student feels welcomed. Every student can be a part of our morning meeting circle. Students can collaborate and participate with ideal space to learn and play.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
